Anyone have advice on the best way to get the reservoir tubes and grommets into to the master cylinder? I couldn't get them to slip in with the grommets in the master cylinder so I tried pushing them on the metal tubes and then pressing them in neither way is working. I have every thing else in place.

"Pull the lines from the reservoir"? THAT sounds like the hardest way of all. Install the grommets and the washers, lube them with brake fluid, install the m/c, and pull the tubes in with a pair of needle nose vise grips and a sturdy hook tool. Sure it's hard, but so is life. Suck it up, folks. The Cap'n

Suck it up, folks. The Cap'n I bit the bullet and took the harder route pulling the gas tank! The master cylinder is in brake system is completly rebuilt and on to the next project the fuel system! Oh what fun! |
